I think the issue is "a manner that does not permit use of the Content outside of the Service." That clause allows browsers to cache the data. I don't believe it's intended to cater for any other use. > Do you think the terms of use could be amended to allow such use case? Doubt it. The Terms are basically unchanged -- certainly in that respect -- since they were first issued. That must be five years at least. You could always raise an Issue, but you will have to be absolutely clear about your use case, and you may also need to specify your security mechanism which ensures that the Content cannot be used outside the Service. http://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/list -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
